Despite the unusually heavy drop in
pears In the past ten days, confidence
of coiymlsslon men in the future of the
fruit industry in the HoKUe Hiver val
ley Is unshaken. Threo new packing
houses are either under, construction
or nuout to he huilt In Mcdford.
The Independent Packing company
with Raymond Ruter us president, has
a. large house under construction on
"Fruit Row" below Mason Khrman and
company's warehouse. Sgobel and
Day of New York are having plans
drawn for a shed to he built here and
O. A. Knight is planning to romodel
and enlarge his packing house with a
view toward providing adequate stor
age facilities for his own fruit and
packing space for commercial packing.
County Agent Cate and his deputies,
Elmer Oatmnn and Howard Warner
are busy preparing cstlmntes of the
pear and apple crop at this time. Gen
erally they sum tip the crop as well
above that of 1921 but below a "full"
crop. Bartletts are fair but below 100
percent production; Anjous are very
light; Ilowells light; Cornice good;
Boec very good and Winter Nells good.
Indications are that all pears will be
of good quality this year, Cate says.
Apples are light generally through
out the valley. About fifty percent of
the 1921 production Is predicted.

EXCELLENT TALK
BY GAL1F0RNIAN
C. OF C. BANQUET
Ono hundred fifty men and women
attended the big get-to-gether ban
quet at the Hotel Medford last night
and listened to one of the most force
ful, fluent and entertaining talks
which local citizens have been given
tho opportunity to hear, for some
time.
The speaker of the evening was W.
H. Bobbitt of Woodland, Calif., and
h!s subject was "Cooperate or Col
lapse." Jn opening he said that the
only time he had been here prior to
tho present time was 17 years ago
while on his honeymoon and that at
that time ho had met William Isaacs,
and had been determined to return
to Medford because of Mr. Isaacs'-en-thuslastlc
talk on tho excellent fish
ing in this vicinity. The speaker said
that ho hud seen practically every
point of interest in the state of Cali
fornia, but that the "biggest eyeful"
he over received was whon he drove
his car over the rim of Crater Lake.
That the times are out of joint,
that something has happened and
that cooperation is necessary to re-
storo normal conditions wero some of
tho assertions of tho speaker, (to
qulrements which must be met by
every good citizen were outlined by
him. Among the requirements was
loyalty which he defined as the plac
ing of one's self Interest below that of
community Interest. The debt owed
by each citizen to his town, his coun
ty, his state and his nation was
strongly emphasized by the spoaker.
lie urged oach citizen to gear up
with public service," to cast his vote
at elections, to have tonacity of pur
pose to cultivnto unselfishness and
to assist the nation to build a ster
ling manhood and womanhood and to
squelch the parasite, the "new aris
tocracy" definod by the speaker as
"codfish aristocracy." Young men
pensioned by parents and young wo
men allowed to develop into "flap
pers" are not the kind of people who
build tho nation nnd make It great.
Despite the acquisition of any deslr
nble amount of culture and wealth
tho coming generations will not equal
the past unless solid substantial qual
ities are developed. I
In addition to deploring tho condl-
tlon of the young "lounge lizard," the!
speakor spoko of Ills vehement dis
tasto for the chronic kicker and the
chronic reactionary Iiv vivid terms.
Mr. Bobbitt made frequont nnd
fluent use of amusing storlos during
his address and each of the many
excellent ones flttod perfectly at a
certain point in the address, greatly
strengthening the points the speaker
was endeavoring to Impress upon the
audionce. He ulso quoted from Kip
ling, Walt Mason nnd others. Whon
he announced to his audience near
the termination of his speech that he
hnd beon a "sky pilot" for the past
29 years surprise was expressed and
many members of tho audionce said,
"Well, if we had a preachor like that
In this town I might go to church
once in a while myself."
Prior to tho address by Mr. Bob
bitt Bert Anderson made a short tujk
nt the request of President Vernon
Vawtor. Mr. Anderson to'd of tho
Influonco exerted upon him by the
Medford booklet published in 1010,
nnd stated that tho nppeul was so
strong that ho came hero at tha't
time, lio advocated tho publishing
of a,booklot and fnvors one of as ar
tistic a mako-up as possible with il
lustrations nnd descriptions of nat
ural ndrnntnges in this vicinity.
Following Mr. Anderson's short
talk, (leorge Collins roso and made
a motion to the effect that tho Cham
ber of Cominorce go on record as roc
ommonding to tho bonrd of directors
I hat a campaign be Inaugurated for
tho purpose of raising $7500 for tho
publication of a booklet, and for the
securing of advertising spneo In maga
zines nnd newspapers. The motion
was seconded and was passed unani
mously. Ai entertaining and clever skit
was given by Lnrry Mann and Paul
McDonald, seated nt a table on which
rested a siphon bottle flanked by two
unfamiliar, long nocked, green hued
chnmpagno bottles. The young gen
tlemen represented John It. Allen add
John D. Olwoll and before they had
finished their discussion, they had
each subscribed $3000 for the puhli.

stranger kept up a confusing and
fast line of convernutlun, disputing
tho correctness of the amount, dur
ing wliich he picked up his change
and also, unnoticed, tho five dollar
bill nnd walked out.
It was not until ho hnd been gone
some timo thnt Mrs. Hcwett, still
guessing, noticed that ho hnd taken

niombpred of having seen him Blip

lic .market, and he In turn reported
tho affair promptly to fc'hlcf of Po
